I got converted to the Belle de Jour way when a friend in Manila sent me a Belle de Jour planner last year as a random gift. I loved it from the moment I lifted it from the package. It was not like the other planners or organizers that I’ve had. It had an expense tracker, a birthday tracker, a menstrual tracker, and a vacation tracker, to name few. There was a quote for the week every week, and every month there was a theme and tips for the season.
But the best part was that it came with 36 discount coupons to different boutiques and coffee shops!
So when I heard that Belle de Jour was soon releasing the 2009 power planner, I reserved mine right away. Here it is now!
It’s a lot better than the 2008 planner, although that one was already love. I especially like the cover design. It has more discount coupons, too! It has 60!
I’m not sure if Belle de Jour has been to Cebu in 2008, but I think not, because I didn’t see the planners sold anywhere here, and I didn’t hear of any Belle de Jour girls here. So when I received the invitation to the launch of the 2009 planner in Powerbooks Cebu, I signed up right away, even though I had an exam that day.
